‘Olaf’s Frozen Adventure’ will be shown on ABC TV on Dec. 14
Now that Disney is pulling “Olaf’s Frozen Adventure” from the theater, it will put it on network television next week.
The 22-minute short was placed before Disney-Pixar’s hit “Coco” and sparked confusion and outrage about what movie they were seeing.
The short will be part of Disney|ABC Television Group’s “25 Days of Christmas” celebration on Thursday, Dec. 14, 2017 at 8 p.m. on Dec. 14, 2017 on ABC. Disney Animation’s Emmy Award-winning holiday special “Prep & Landing” airs 8:30 to 9 p.m. EST
In “Olaf’s Frozen Adventure,” Olaf (voice of Josh Gad) teams up with Sven on a merry mission. It’s the first holiday season since the gates reopened and Anna (voice of Kristen Bell) and Elsa (voice of Idina Menzel) host a celebration for all of Arendelle. When the townspeople unexpectedly leave early to enjoy their individual holiday customs, the sisters realize they have no family traditions of their own. So, Olaf sets out to comb the kingdom to bring home the best traditions and save Anna and Elsa’s “first Christmas in forever.”
“Olaf’s Frozen Adventure” features the original cast of Arendelle characters, including Olaf, voiced by Gad (“Marshall,” “Book of Mormon”); Anna, voiced by Bell (“Frozen,” “Bad Moms”); Elsa, voiced by Menzel (Broadway’s “Wicked,” “Rent” and “If/Then”; Fox’s “Glee”); and Kristoff, voiced by Jonathan Groff (Broadway’s “Hamilton,” Netflix’s “Mindhunter”).
